David,

Thank you very much for your rapid response. We managed to get the style we
wanted with your instructions.
There are a few other questions regarding format and styles that we haven’t
been able to answer with the handbook. Could you please help us?

1.      We’d like to use both italics and Roman print (but not
simultaneously) in the same element. For example, we’d like to have
something looking like this in the Etymology Attribute:

                                                                   Del lat.
*nectar* y este del gr. *nektar*

2.      We need to combine italics and bold print only in those lemma signs
related to foreign words. Is that possible? If we activate the bold and
italics options in the Format/style tab all of our lemma signs are affected.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Ricardo
